"An outstanding talent. we scouted him in a lot of games and he did exceptionally well at a young age. A real player, he's really involved in everything.
“A real talent. I'm really excited about him. He had a back problem but now I've seen him two or three times training but it's three sessions.
“Now I know much more about him as a boy - outstanding, well-educated, confident in a really good way. The start of his career has had a little interruption but it's better now than next year.
“We're through this and now we have to give him a good chance to have the best possible career.”
